Working definition
Interoception is the ability to read the body’s signal before the behavior takes over: sensation, interpretation, thought, emotion, then action.
How it works
Most self-sabotage is treated too late. You tries to change the behavior after the chain has already fired.
Yann’s move is to bring attention earlier:
- What sensation appears in the body?
- What image or representation is attached to it?
- What thought follows?
- What emotion starts moving?
- What behavior becomes likely?
The goal is not to over-analyze every signal. The goal is to understand the chain in the places where the chain repeatedly limits your freedom.
Signature
The image is the injection phrase — image triggers sensation triggers behaviour — Yann on 2026-02-16: catch the body before the story hardens into identity.
